1c244f6ee5 git submodule summary: add --files option
git submodule summary is providing similar functionality for submodules as
git diff-index does for a git project (including the meaning of --cached).
But the analogon to git diff-files is missing, so add a --files option to
summarize the differences between the index of the super project and the
last commit checked out in the working tree of the submodule.

07436e43da push: point to 'git pull' and 'git push --force' in case of non-fast forward
'git push' failing because of non-fast forward is a very common situation,
and a beginner does not necessarily understand "fast forward" immediately.

Add a new section to the git-push documentation and refer them to it.

57f6ec0290 Change mentions of "git programs" to "git commands"
Most of the docs and printouts refer to "commands" when discussing what
the end users call via the "git" top-level program. We should refer them
as "git programs" when we discuss the fact that the commands are
implemented as separate programs, but in other contexts, it is better to
use the term "git commands" consistently.

1a3d834f06 git-rev-list.txt: Clarify the use of multiple revision arguments
If one thinks of a revision as the set of commits which can be reached
from the rev, and of ^rev as the complement, then multiple arguments to
git rev-list can be neither understood as the intersection nor the union
of the individual sets.

But set language is the natural as well as logical language in which to
phrase this. So, add a paragraph which explains multiple arguments using
set language.

5749b0b2f9 don't let the delta cache grow unbounded in 'git repack'
I have 4GB of RAM on my system which should, in theory, be quite enough
to repack a 600 MB repository.  However the unbounded delta cache size
always pushes it into swap, at which point everything virtually comes to
a halt.  So unbounded caches are never a good idea.

A default of 256MB should be a good compromize between memory usage and
speed where medium sized repositories are still likely to fit in the
cache with a reasonable memory usage, and larger repositories are going
to take quite some time to repack already anyway.

While at it, clarify the associated config variable documentation
entries a bit.

6eb996b570 Add support for external programs for handling native fetches
transport_get() can call transport_native_helper_init() to have list and
fetch-ref operations handled by running a separate program as:

 git remote-<something> <remote> [<url>]

This program then accepts, on its stdin, "list" and "fetch <hex>
<name>" commands; the former prints out a list of available refs and
either their hashes or what they are symrefs to, while the latter
fetches them into the local object database and prints a newline when done.

2da846e709 Documentation: git-send-email: correct statement about standard ports
The current documentation states that servers typically listen on port
465 and calls this "ssmtp". While it's true that many mail servers use
port 465 for SSL smtp, this is non-standard, and hails from the days
before smtp and submission TLS support, that arrived in RFC2487 and
RFC3207. Port 465 is actually assigned by IANA for unrelated purposes,
and is mostly still used by mail servers today only to support Outlook
Express.

In any case, this patch helps the documentation better reflect both
standards and reality, while still helpfully mentioning ports numbers
that a user may wish to specify.

79559f27be git fast-export: add --no-data option
When using git fast-export and git fast-import to rewrite the history
of a repository with large binary files, almost all of the time is
spent dealing with blobs.  This is extremely inefficient if all we want
to do is rewrite the commits and tree structure.  --no-data skips the
output of blobs and writes SHA-1s instead of marks, which provides a
massive speedup.

that they disable parsing of inline constructs, i.e.,

  Input:	`{plus}`
  Pre 8.4.1:	+
  Post 8.4.1:	{plus}

Fix this by defining the asciidoc attribute 'no-inline-literal'

behaviour) when under ASCIIDOC8.

6b48829dbb git svn: revert default behavior for --minimize-url
This reverts the --minimize-url behavior change that
appeared recently in commit 0b2af457a4
("Fix branch detection when repository root is inaccessible").

However, we now allow the option to be turned off by allowing
"--no-minimize-url" so people with limited-access setups can
still take advantage of the fix in
0b2af457a4.

Also document the behavior and default settings of minimize-url
in the manpage for the first time.

This introduces a temporary UI regression to allow t9141 to pass
that will be reverted (fixed) in the next commit.

7f3140cd23 git repack: keep commits hidden by a graft
When you have grafts that pretend that a given commit has different
parents than the ones recorded in the commit object, it is dangerous
to let 'git repack' remove those hidden parents, as you can easily
remove the graft and end up with a broken repository.

So let's play it safe and keep those parent objects and everything
that is reachable by them, in addition to the grafted parents.

As this behavior can only be triggered by git pack-objects, and as that
command handles duplicate parents gracefully, we do not bother to cull
duplicated parents that may result by using both true and grafted
parents.

a91f453f64 grep: Add --max-depth option.
It is useful to grep directories non-recursively, e.g. when one wants to
look for all files in the toplevel directory, but not in any subdirectory,
or in Documentation/, but not in Documentation/technical/.

This patch adds support for --max-depth <depth> option to git-grep. If it is
given, git-grep descends at most <depth> levels of directories below paths
specified on the command line.

Note that if path specified on command line contains wildcards, this option
makes no sense, e.g.

    $ git grep -l --max-depth 0 GNU -- 'contrib/*'

(note the quotes) will search all files in contrib/, even in
subdirectories, because '*' matches all files.

Documentation updates, bash-completion and simple test cases are also
provided.

5a56da5806 read-tree: migrate to parse-options
Cleanup the documentation to explicitly state that --exclude-directory
is only meaningful when used with -u. Also make the documentation more
consistent with the usage message printed with read-tree --help-all.

The -m, --prefix, --reset options are performing similar actions
(setting some flags, read_cache_unmerged(), checking for illegal option
combinations). Instead of performing these actions when the options are
parsed, we delay performing them until after parse-opts has finished.

The bit fields in struct unpack_trees_options have been promoted to full
unsigned ints. This is necessary to avoid "foo ? 1 : 0" constructs to
set these fields.

2d8ad46919 fast-export: Add a --tag-of-filtered-object option for newly dangling tags
When providing a list of paths to limit what is exported, the object that
a tag points to can be filtered out entirely.  This new switch allows
the user to specify what should happen to the tag in such a case.  The
default action, 'abort' will exit with an error message.  With 'drop', the
tag will simply be omitted from the output.  With 'rewrite', if the object
tagged was a commit, the tag will be modified to tag an alternate commit.
The alternate commit is determined by treating the original commit as the
"parent" of the tag and then using the parent rewriting algorithm of the
revision traversal machinery (related to the "--parents" option of "git
rev-list")

Add a command to unwind the effects of fetch by moving the rev_map
and refs/remotes/git-svn back to an old SVN revision.  This allows
revisions to be re-fetched.  Ideally SVN revs would be immutable,
but permissions changes in the SVN repository or indiscriminate use
of '--ignore-paths' can create situations where fetch cannot make
progress.

5eec27e35f git-svn: let 'dcommit $rev' work on $rev instead of HEAD
'git svn dcommit' takes an optional revision argument, but the meaning
of it was rather scary.  It completely ignored the current state of
the HEAD, only looking at the revisions between SVN and $rev.  If HEAD
was attached to $branch, the branch lost all commits $rev..$branch in
the process.

Considering that 'git svn dcommit HEAD^' has the intuitive meaning
"dcommit all changes on my branch except the last one", we change the
meaning of the revision argument.  git-svn temporarily checks out $rev
for its work, meaning that

* if a branch is specified, that branch (_not_ the HEAD) is rebased as
  part of the dcommit,

* if some other revision is specified, as in the example, all work
  happens on a detached HEAD and no branch is affected.

certificate password prompt from within git.  If this option is false and
if the environment variable does not exist, git falls back to OpenSSL's
prompts (as in earlier versions of git).

The environment variable may only be used to enable, not to disable
git's password prompt.  This behavior mimics GIT_NO_VERIFY; the mere
existence of the variable is all that is checked.

cb8a9bd518 Test cccmd in t9001-send-email.sh and fix some bugs
For another patch series I'm working on I needed some tests
for the cc-cmd feature of git-send-email.

This patch adds 3 tests for the feature and for the possibility
to specify --suppress-cc multiple times, and fixes two bugs.
The first bug is that the --suppress-cc option for `cccmd' was
misspelled as `ccmd' in the code.  The second bug, which is
actually found only with my other series, is that the argument
to the cccmd is never quoted, so the cccmd would fail with
patch file names containing a space.

A third bug I fix (in the docs) is that the bodycc argument was
actually spelled ccbody in the documentation and bash completion.

c97038d1cf git-rerere.txt: grammatical fixups and cleanups
Rewrite the gc section using unresolved and resolved instead of "not
recorded". Add plurals and missing articles. Make some sentences have
consistent tense. Try and be more active by removing "that" and
simplifying sentences.

The terms "hand-resolve" and "hand resolve" were used, so just use "hand
resolve" to be more consistent.

f39d6ee2aa Documentation: mention 'git stash pop --index' option explicitly
'git stash pop' supports the '--index' option since its initial
implementation (bd56ff54, git-stash: add new 'pop' subcommand,
2008-02-22), but its documentation does not mention it explicitly.
Moreover, both the usage shown by 'git stash -h' and the synopsis
section in the man page imply that 'git stash pop' does not have an
'--index' option.

First, this patch corrects the usage and the synopsis section.

Second, the patch moves the description of the '--index' option to the
'git stash pop' section in the documentation, and refers to it from
the 'git stash apply' section.  This way it follows the intentions of
commit d1836637 (Documentation: teach stash/pop workflow instead of
stash/apply, 2009-05-28), as all 'git stash pop'-related documentation
will be in one place without references to 'git stash apply'.

42b4917862 git-submodule: add support for --merge.
'git submodule update --merge' merges the commit referenced by the
superproject into your local branch, instead of checking it out on
a detached HEAD.

As evidenced by the addition of "git submodule update --rebase", it
is useful to provide alternatives to the default 'checkout' behaviour
of "git submodule update". One such alternative is, when updating a
submodule to a new commit, to merge that commit into the current
local branch in that submodule. This is useful in workflows where
you want to update your submodule from its upstream, but you cannot
use --rebase, because you have downstream people working on top of
your submodule branch, and you don't want to disrupt their work.

329484256e Rename submodule.<name>.rebase to submodule.<name>.update
The addition of "submodule.<name>.rebase" demonstrates the usefulness of
alternatives to the default behaviour of "git submodule update". However,
by naming the config variable "submodule.<name>.rebase", and making it a
boolean choice, we are artificially constraining future git versions that
may want to add _more_ alternatives than just "rebase".

Therefore, while "submodule.<name>.rebase" is not yet in a stable git
release, future-proof it, by changing it from

  submodule.<name>.rebase = true/false

to

  submodule.<name>.update = rebase/checkout

where "checkout" specifies the default behaviour of "git submodule update"
(checking out the new commit to a detached HEAD), and "rebase" specifies
the --rebase behaviour (where the current local branch in the submodule is
rebase onto the new commit). Thus .update == checkout is equivalent to
.rebase == false, and .update == rebase is equivalent to .rebase == true.
Finally, leaving .update unset is equivalent to leaving .rebase unset.

In future git versions, other alternatives to "git submodule update"
behaviour can be included by adding them to the list of allowable values
for the submodule.<name>.update variable.
